Baseball developments in the Dominican Republic

Overview

The Dominican Republic has seen several developments in baseball administration and youth competition. In July 2026, the country hosted the WORGBEV International Baseball Classic U10 in Guerra, featuring delegations from six nations.

Following this, the Dominican Baseball Federation (FEDOM) approved a Baseball Development Plan. This initiative, funded by prize money from the 2026 World Baseball Classic, is intended to strengthen provincial and National District associations to provide more opportunities for players, coaches, and clubs. The plan specifically aims to foster new talent and support both coaches and athletes.

In the Dominican Professional Baseball League (LIDOM), the Leones del Escogido have finalized their coaching staff for the 2026-27 season. Under manager Ramón Santiago, the staff features returning members Ronny Paulino and Jorge Mejía, as well as new additions Edwin Beard, serving as offensive coordinator, and instructor Pedro López.
